The World Hanguk Tang Soo Do Federation was established by our Founder and President, Grandmaster Moon K Kim.
Our federation flag was derived from the original Moo Duk Kwan symbol. The symbols below all hold meaning to create the federation flag. The Yellow Fist stands for Justice; ability to uphold what is right and fair. The Laurel Leaves are to signify the 13 original provinces/colonies of combined Korea and Jeju Island. The 6 Red Berries are a symbol of the 6 continents where Tang Soo Do is practiced. Lines of Globe represent the spread of Tang Soo Do around the world and the hope that it will continue to grow.
The official flag of South Korea holds many symbols in itself. The bars around the corners each represent: Heaven, Earth, Water, and Fire. While the blue and red Um-Yang in the middle is the sphere of infinity. Balance and Harmony

I am so happy to have found USK. I finally found a program where my child is growing and learning. He is safe and has so much fun in Afterschool. He has not had this type of structure before and this program has been the best thing for him.
I know I don’t speak for myself when we say a hugely impactful ‘Thank you’. My son's improvements have been massive. You all helped instill confidence and push him to empower him with pride and strength. These moments will live on regardless of any future decisions he makes.
My son loves it at USK. He has grown a passion for Tang Soo Do and he has made great improvements at school and with his overall behavior. He is learning confidence and respect. Thank you for offering such a wonderful program to the community.
